General Aviation / Large Drone, N. Belfast.
« Last post by Sneaky_Nikon on July 10, 2023, 12:59:16 AM »About 21:00 last night there was a large rotary drone operating over N. Belfast, Cavehill/Ballysillan direction.
Not sure what it was at, but it was bumbling about for about an hour, dark coloured and near silent.

The Casa is a very sleek looking machine, I note still some folks moaning about war-mongering, these pea-brains might be glad of the Casa if they ever need rescuing.
